Chardonnay is one of the oldest and most widely distributed wine grape cultivars and is of
commercial importance for the world's wine-producing nations. It is an extremely flexible …

A great deal of research in the alcoholic beverage industry was done on non-
Saccharomyces yeast strains in recent years. The increase in research interest could be …

Vinification is a complex process involving interactions between microbes and grape must,
resulting in wine. The key microorganisms are fermentative yeasts, which transform an …

Diversification can generate genomic and phenotypic strain-level diversity within microbial
species. This microdiversity is widely recognized in populations, but the community-level …

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the yeast of choice for most inoculated wine fermentations
worldwide. However, many other yeast species and genera display phenotypes of interest …

The main aim of this work was to analyse the diversity of wild Saccharomyces cerevisiae
isolated from spontaneous fermentations of grapes collected from heroic vine-growing area …

Saccharomyces paradoxus is commonly isolated from environmental samples in Northern
Europe and North America, but is rarely found associated with fermentation. However, as …

The indigenous yeast communities associated with several vineyard habitats were
analysed. Wild yeasts were isolated, differentiated at strain level and identified. A …

Wine fermentation is a complex process driven by yeasts, which influence the key properties
of wine quality: aroma, flavour and colour. We investigated 95 different Saccharomyces and …

The aim of this study was to characterize the yeast consortium isolated from Grignolino
grapes in a newly planted vineyard in Piedmont (Italy) via analysis of the intra-vineyard …
